As ESL teachers, we know that this can include cultural, social, educational, familial, employment, economic, or psychological issues, to name a few. We try to acknowledge and respect these issues in hopes of supporting our learners. NCLE invites you to read a new digest by Janet Isserlis that addresses one such issue. "Trauma and the Adult English Language Learner" discusses issues of trauma, abuse, and violence as they relate to adult immigrant learners and looks at the implications for the adult ESL classroom. You can access the digest via the World Wide Web at http://www.cal.org/ncle/digests/trauma2.htm or you can request a copy directly from NCLE (see contact information below). Also now available from NCLE is the latest issue (vol 9, no1, summer 2000) our twice-yearly newsletter, NCLEnotes. It includes a discussion of helping refugees deal with stress and an interview with Janet Isserlis, as well as news and an update on new resources.
